That's about half of what i've seen last when I was checking their patreon. Maybe around 12 - 18 months ago.
They might be considering what to do since their patreon counts dropped significantlyNot too far away from May and there's total radio silence on their Patreon, the latest update isn't even mentioned in their blog, lmao.
Guess they're going all-in on their little echo chamber Discord server, kind of pathetic but also funny.
You might think so, but even on the discord channel for the game there are a couple mincing inquiries and radio silence. There's just... nothing going on at all on any front.Not too far away from May and there's total radio silence on their Patreon, the latest update isn't even mentioned in their blog, lmao.

Absolutely, it's pretty evident in how in gameplay elements were just abandoned once she left. Gold, stamina, freedom/slave stat, raiding mechanic, combat stats (whens the last time there was even a combat encounter in the game? 2 years?) They said they tried to make a new gameplay system with the bar scene (and all of those variations nomo made that we've haven't got to see) but it seems they failed miserably at that.Like 99% sure Sierra did the writing, coding, and game design before she left. The game design (how the quests work, how the variables are used to tell a story, etc) are night and day if you compare the content from before and after Sierra left. Coding is hard to say because this game is mostly just basic Ren'py, but I remember Nomo announcing after Sierra's departure that there would be 2 people to replace her, 1 writer and 1 coder, so not really hard to guess that she was the one doing both things before.
Nomo did art, character design, and story draft. By all means KoD is his brainchild, but the decline on being able to turn his ideas into a playable game after Sierra's departure is pretty evident.
Can we get the screenshots of what they are saying in the game thread on the discord, please? Just out of curiosity.You might think so, but even on the discord channel for the game there are a couple mincing inquiries and radio silence. There's just... nothing going on at all on any front.
From what I can comprehend from this post, nothing. I guess patreons are asking about the update but they are not giving them an answer, radio silence on all fronts, patreon, discord, and their blog. I guess the news will be out soon. "We have decided that KOD is not worth putting in the effort blah blah blah, and we don't want to keep the patreons waiting/ waste their money blah,blah,blah so, we are going to start a new project in blank amount of time." This is still what I think will happen and not to be for granted I am not in their discord or a patreon, they might actually be working on the update but are not telling anything about it because either they know they will get a backlash or they are ashamed to tell them that they have completed the second half of a single quest in 2-3 months.Can we get the screenshots of what they are saying in the game thread on the discord, please?

So i assume the dev abandon the KOD completely?From what I can comprehend from this post, nothing.

I am nervous because i was hoping they would just wake up at some point and start putting in a better effort for the game. It sounds like they might just abandon the game entirely at this pointSo i assume the dev abandon the KOD completely?
You have to go back to an older save. Remember that an orc asked you questions about Vehlis a few patches ago? Basically screw up every answer intentionally and make Vehlis look as guilty as possible.How am I supposed to trigger the bad end with Vehlis being a prisoner in the orc camp? I take her to the event but it just resolves the quest as normal.
I'd be surprised if they did that.I am nervous because i was hoping they would just wake up at some point and start putting in a better effort for the game. It sounds like they might just abandon the game entirely at this point

Like I said I am not sure, it is just my speculation. The update might come out soon or we might hear from them soon, I don't know, as mentioned I don't have access to their discord nor am I a patreon, so don't take my word for granted.I am nervous because i was hoping they would just wake up at some point and start putting in a better effort for the game.

best post in this thread by far
